Systems Including a Gateway Receiving Sensor Data, and Related Methods

2. The system of claim 1, in which the transceiver is configured to operate at a power level below 3.0 mW.

3. The system of claim 1, in which the transceiver is configured to operate at a power level below 1.0 mW.

4. The system of claim 1, in which the transceiver is a Bluetooth transceiver.

5. The system of claim 4, in which the gateway is configured to use Bluetooth mesh networking.

6. The system of claim 1, in which the gateway is a mobile computing device, a smartphone, a tablet computer or a laptop computer.

7. The system of claim 1, in which the gateway is a non-mobile device.

8. The system of claim 1, in which the gateway includes a further transceiver, or in which the gateway includes a further transceiver configured to operate at a power level above 50 mW.

9. The system of claim 8, in which the gateway is configured to communicate with the data storage server using the further transceiver, or in which the further transceiver is a cellular transceiver, for example a LPWAN transceiver.

10. The system of claim 1, in which the transceiver is configured to use advertising (beacon) one way communication from a sensor to the gateway, or in which the transceiver is configured to use a mesh Bluetooth protocol.

11. The system of claim 1, the system including a sensor.

12. The system of claim 11, in which the sensor sends a beacon advertising signal when it is not connected to the gateway; the gateway's application sets up a geofence zone to all low power (below 5.0 mW) sensors, so the gateway runs a part of the application code each time when the gateway enters a sensor advertising signal zone; this part of the code is responsible for data routing—so the gateway connects to the sensor, downloads the sensor data and sends the sensor data to the destination (eg. in the cloud).

13. The system of claim 11, in which the transceiver is configured to use two-way communication between the sensor which is trusted by the gateway, and the gateway, which is trusted by the sensor.

14. The system of claim 11, in which the sensor includes an ID relating to the system.

15. The system of claim 14, (i) in which the gateway checks the ID against a ledger of the system, wherein the system includes the ledger; or (ii) in which the gateway checks the ID against a ledger of the system, wherein the system includes the ledger, and in which the gateway checks a secure key in the gateway's internal memory, and all data sent through the gateway is end-to-end encrypted.

16. The system of claim 11, in which a user can't read the data until he has a necessary key for the sensor, or in which a sensor key is used for correct accounting of a sent data amount.

19. The system of claim 18, (i) wherein the sensor data is stored using the blockchain system, wherein token transactions for the first tokens and for the second tokens are stored using the blockchain system, and wherein the gateways are registered nodes in the blockchain system; or (ii) in which the plurality of gateways include a plurality of LR gateways and a plurality of BLE gateways; or (iii) in which the gateways are arranged to receive the sensor data from a plurality of devices registered at the service provider's server of the plurality of service providers' servers.
